Gametrailers.com review Ignition Entertainments artistic action adventure El Shaddai Ascension of the Metatron;
The time has finally come for El Shaddai to descend into North America. Is there a truly great game here, or does its beauty merely run skin deep?
A classic action game makes its triumphant return on the Nintendo Switch
El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron is an action game by Ignition Tokyo and UTV Ignition Games for PS3 and Xbox 360, later released on Switch.
VGChartz's Evan Norris: "Presenting El Shaddai: Ascension of the Metatron to a new audience and preserving it for future generations is a great thing, especially considering its cult status. Whether that audience will enjoy it is another matter entirely. Due to its cryptic storytelling, repetitive combat, and clumsy platforming, it doesn't quite escape the orbit of mediocrity. Still, there's a lot to admire, including exciting boss battles, impressive production design, and powerful music. If nothing else, it's an ambitious game with a singular vision. And that's something to celebrate."
Its a pretty cool game. i have the 360 version but Id buy the switch to play on the go.
The game looks gorgeous, and I'd be lying if I said I didn't want it, but due to present circumstances as well as the influx of games coming later this year, I'll have to give it a miss.
It's a shame really, if I had more disposable income I'd definitely get this.
I can't wait for this anymoooooooooore! :)
